The whole registering and organisation of the event was well managed, I don't have any complaints. I expected the race to be hilly but I didn't realise how hilly it would be, I should have been better prepared, it starts on Stockport Harriers running track and heads out onto a mixture of surfaces, begining on roads which lead to a housing estate then onto country lanes. There are two water stations at miles 4 and 8, this is given out in cups which I find hard to drink from whilst running. The course finishes at the running track where we completed a lap. The goody bag was good, medal, flapjack, water, choice of men's or women's t shirt and a pair of running socks, this race isn't expensive and puts other races that charge more to shame.
